Oh, I wish, how I wish
It was me you loved
Baby, I wish, how I wish
It was me you loved
Honest to God
Such a pretty thing
All locked up in
The crib by yourself
He comes home from work
Just to eat and sleep
He even make you promises
He'll never keep
Yet you stand by him
All faithful and can be
Can't you see you'd be better off
With a man like me
How I wish, how I wish
It was me you loved
Hey, how I wish, how I wish
It was me you loved
He's running the streets at night
(Chasing after every skirt)
Chasing every skirt
All along, doing his dirty dirt
Oh, yes, he is
You're sitting home all alone
While your man
He's out having fun
Oh
(How I wish that it was me you loved)
I wish you were mine
How I wish, how I wish
(How I wish that it was me you loved)
I want you by my side
With every step I take
I want you with me
For the rest of my days
(How I wish that it was me you loved)
How I wish it was me you loved
How I wish, oh, I wish
It was me you loved
(How I wish that it was me you loved)....
I'll take you anywhere you wanna go...
